You get 3,400 tax credit for the year.
Based on the year to date data and the fact that there are 5 months left in the year you are over-paying tax if you didn’t work at the start of the year.
Its correct you are paying what you should be, its just not right. Welcome to the shiteshow of existence
That’s the normal amount of tax you’d expect to pay for that gross pay
That’s why there’s no force to make me do single overtime 🤣
Looks about right from my own hour and wages, welcome to wage slavery.
20% tax seems correct
Your gross is 1566 and you’re paying 318 which is about a fifth of your gross or 20%. That’s about right. Just imagine how it is when you see *55%* of it disappear.
Lol wait until you jump from 20% to 40% some day (before PRSI and USC of course). Or when you become a landlord and give more than half the rent you collect to the government! People who earn more or generate income from assets they saved really hard to buy have to give a heck of a lot more away than this (and yes of course they do earn more).
Given its August, and you’ve previously only earned about €1,500 this year in that job, I guess this is your second job this year?
Maybe all your tax credits are applied against your previous job? In that case you should go on the revenue.ie website and fill in that you have a new job.
Being charged 20% on that income is ‘right’, but then some of that tax should be reduced by your annual tax credits.
Cries in high PAYE, PRSI and USC!
Painful paying the amount of tax we do for what we get in return. But sure look, tis grand, the lads in Leinster House need their €5,000 per year stationery expenses so they can print out Christmas cards for their constituents on our dime.
Ha, you should see my payslips. This is a flesh wound.
Yeah seems right.
€318/1566 = 0.20
Looks spot on to me
Thats feck all tax!
Nah looks legit, I think you’re paying too little tax
Probably about right. If you want to bring your tax bill down, you could contribute to a pension which is tax deferred.
Welcome to the free state where you can’t afford a house but pay out the nose in tax yeeeoooo ffg. Loving it 🤷♂️
That’s fuck all tax
Looks ok but just that you haven’t applied your tax credits
Wait and see when you hit the 40% rate and then look around at those who choose not to work and have multiple holiday’s abroad a year. Sickening
Bless. I remember that feeling for the first time. Welcome. It never gets any better!

That looks about right.
Did you work in another job before this one?
